    The bathroom door was a little aggressive in how it shuts & couldn’t find something to hold it open when it would get a bit steamy after a shower.

    The location could not have been better, we were able to walk to so much. The bed was most comfortable and made getting in it each night a dream! Everything else about the apartment was just the cherry on top.

    Fantastic flat & location with a bothersome key retrieval process.

    The process to retrieve the keys on check-in is bothersome. You have to retrieve the keys from a shop a couple blocks away from the flat itself. Depending on how you’re arriving it could be troublesome, especially if you’re on foot/ carrying luggage as you either have to go up & down stairs or go the long way around the block on the sidewalks.

    The location is excellent, right under Edinburgh castle grounds and just a block away from the Royal Mile or the New Town areas. The flat was clean, roomy, well appointed, and comfortable. The area around the flat is very safe & well lit. Also, having a place to do laundry was wonderful.

    Walking from the train station with our luggage and picking up the keys was more challenging than we expected. Edinburgh has some big hills!

    Awesome choice! Great location in center of town with views of Edinburgh Castle. Within walking distance to great restaurants, shops, tour bus pickups, many top places to visit in the city. Luxurious king bed, fresh, new and well maintained.

    The apartment is quiet in relation to other neighbours within the building but you do hear everything from the road outside. We stayed mid week so other than the odd drunken serenade and middle of the night bin collection it didn’t affect a nights sleep too much. I’m not sure if it may be noisier on a weekend though.

    A wonderful spacious, clean, well equipped home from home in a great location. Just a short walk away from the old town it has amazing views of the castle. Entrance is via a secure lobby with a lift to the 2nd floor. It has absolutely everything you need to get started in your holiday.

    Key collection and drop off a few mins away with staircase - hard for some to manage especially with luggage If light sleeper may be disturbed by beeping from vans unloading and drunks passing by, although that is probably a problem all over the beautiful City!

    Castle view Very little passing traffic Close to Old Town and 10m walk to main shops on Princes St 10mins to castle Large shower room Good quality crockery

    It is important to pay attention to the instructions regarding key collection, which is via a local shop. The instructions provided are very clear so it wasn't a problem for us.

    Lovely apartment in a great location. We particularly liked the colourful artwork which made the apartment feel quite special. The apartment is light and spacious with modern comfortable furniture. The kitchen is well equipped, the bathroom is very spacious. The inclusion of a washing machine AND tumble drier was much appreciated. We also really liked all the thoughtful touches like lots of coat hooks in the hallway and loads of hangers. Our (adult) son was very happy with the sofa bed in the lounge.

    The parking garage was close by and easy to use - but very expensive (be warned). The wifi code and password should be in the information file or displayed somewhere!

    We stayed in this beautiful apartment for two days. Check in went smoothly. This apartment is beautiful, spacious and has a superb location! The living area is spacious and modern and the kitchen perfectly equipped. There were some extra touches in the kitchen that made our stay very comfortable and memorable. The bedroom was equally spacious, lots of storage and we slept very well. We used the washing machine and the tumble dryer (which was a great help and benefit). The location is absolutely spot on. We highly recommend this apartment to anyone who want to stay in Edinburgh.

Nice view of Edinburgh castle from both the bedroom and the sitting room, especially when the castle is lit up at night. The owner responded promptly to any queries we had prior to arrival. Would recommend!

    There was a confusion with the cleaning prior to my arrival meaning the apartment wasn't cleaned when I got there but the owner was great, sent cleaners around quickly to remedy the situation.

    Great location and lovely, well equipped apartment, just a bit inconvenient to have to collect and return the key to a shop around the corner.

    I don’t have anything bad to say!

    I absolutely loved everything about it! The layout, it felt very cosy and it had absolutely everything you could dream of for a trip. Amazing facilities like the washing machine and dryer (with washing tablets ready to use), a dishwasher, an oven, coffee machine etc. The view was amazing and it was very well situated. Would definitely stay there again! I would’ve loved to see some teabags as there was coffee but no tea but that’s being very fussy! Having the TV with Netflix etc with view of the castle just next to us was amazing. They really thought of everything, even all kinds of iPhone chargers. Really enjoyed it, and couldn’t have been happier with our stay, excellent value for money, really felt at home. Thank you!
